Summer Splash! IQ Clean Review & Giveaway



No one wants to clean in the summer, but it has to be done. And if you're going to do it, why not do it with products that are better for your family and the environment. IQ Clean offers cleaning products that are different than other green products. Not only do they work wonders, they are fun to use. You must need to get the starter bottles once, and refill them with their condensed cartridges. Getting my kids to help cleaning wasn't nearly as much of a chore because watching as the cartridges blended with water was exciting and different. And once our IQ cleaning products were ready to go, cleaning the whole house was a breeze.



I was lucky enough to be able to try out several of the products in the IQ Clean line.  The All Purpose Cleaner was amazing. It cut through kitchen grease and even spaghetti sauce cleaned up easily. And it also worked great on counter tops, the stove top, and even the microwave. The bathroom cleaner removed hard water stains and mildew in the bathroom, and made the tile and porcelain shine. Their Glass Cleaner left mirrors and windows sparkling and streak free. When we were done, the whole house looked sparkling and new.



I have always hated cleaning with products loaded with chemicals. I hate the way they smell and I'm afraid of what they might be doing to the health of my family. So I am always on the look out for awesome green cleaning products. There are a lot of them out here but many of them are either extremely expensive or don't work very well.  But IQ Cleaners are different. They are great green products that live up to their promises of a true clean. And they are affordable for the average household. The refill packets not only help to reduce the cost, they also reduce the amount of waste you're creating, making IQ the all around best choice for all your cleaning needs.



One lucky winner will receive a prize pack with a $50 value including the All Purpose, Glass and Bathroom Cleaner starter kits plus a year’s supply of REFill cartridges for each!

iQ didn't get to be the Smarter Cleaner by accident. A lot of smart questions were asked, a lot of ingrained habits were challenged, and a lot of assumptions were debunked. The result isn't just a better cleaner, it's an entirely better way to do things.
